Chapter 462 I Want You in the Future

After starting, Yuan Qing was not as nervous as before. "Before, I was young and ignorant, and I just thought that this would be the most helpful. Now I don't think so anymore."

"Then what do you think now?"

"I want us to study together and return home together. I want us to get married after we pass the examination. I have to study for another three years and take the provincial examination to be sure. By then, we will be seventeen and sixteen, and we can get married.

I want you to accompany me to the capital to take the Spring Examination. Famous doctors will gather there and you can exchange medical skills with them. If I stay in the capital to work, we can open a clinic. Then we can go out together every day. I will work at the government office and you will go to the clinic to see patients. Then we will go home together at night."

Song Ying looked up in astonishment, even her shyness was temporarily reduced a lot, "You think so far ahead!"

As soon as she said this, she remembered that Yuan Qing was a man who thought ten steps ahead before taking one step. It was in line with his character to think so far ahead about marriage.

“I think the future has you.”

Song Ying felt as if his heart was hit hard by something, and the world seemed to have become quiet. Only the words "I want you to be in my future" kept echoing in his ears.

Although the sky was dim at the moment, the eyes of the young man opposite were frighteningly bright, like the stars in the night sky, deep and charming, making people unable to help but indulge in them.

It seemed like a long time had passed, but it also seemed like only a short moment. Song Ying's heart started beating again, thump, thump, one beat louder than the other.

She pursed her lips and whispered, "Your family won't agree, I heard before that they also want to wait until you pass the imperial examination before marrying a noble lady."

Yuan Qing's eyes lit up, "So, you are willing?"

"I, no, uh…"

Song Ying's cheeks were almost burning with shame, and she subconsciously wanted to deny it, but when she met Yuan Qing's bright and sparkling eyes, she couldn't bear to deny it, so she simply turned her head away and acquiesced.

"Great!"

Yuan Qing waved his arms excitedly, then felt a little unsteady, and cleared his throat, trying to suppress his excitement. He acted gentle and calm, and said, "I will convince my family, but I have to wait until I pass the exam. By then, I will have more say at home, and it will be easier to convince them."

Song Ying didn't dare to look at him again. He lowered his eyes and stared at the ground not far away, but his vision slowly lost focus. He thought: How come he is so confident about such a thing?

After a while of excitement, Yuan Qing said, "Then we have a deal. You have to wait for me during this period of time and you can't agree to other people's marriage proposals."

"I haven't reached marriage age yet, so it's too early for me to get married." Song Ying said in a low voice.

"Okay." Yuan Qing smiled. Her birthday was in winter, and the college entrance examination was in August. This meant she agreed to wait!

After that, neither of them spoke. Occasionally, their eyes met, but they quickly looked away as if they were burned by fire.

Time passed quietly for a long time before Song Ying finally said shyly, "It's getting dark. I have to go back. You should hurry back to the academy as well."

After saying this, she turned around and walked away quickly, as if she was fleeing.

But after walking a few steps, she remembered something and turned back to ask, "It's so dark, do you need a lantern?"

Yuan Qing nodded, "Yes."

After he finished speaking, he walked over a few steps and followed Song Yingxian to Yingnuoxuan to get the lamp.

Seeing a dark figure approaching from a distance, Tangtang ran out again. Luo Yanxing knew that it was Song Ying who came back, and asked hurriedly: "Why did you come back so late today? Have you shown the new soap to the sisters in the Shen Mansion? What do they think?"

Song Ying skipped her previous question and answered, "I showed them this cute pancreas. Of course they like it very much. Don't worry, they will come over when they are free the day after tomorrow."

As they were talking, they walked to the door. With the help of the lantern light, Luo Yanxing saw Yuan Qing beside her. "Hey, Yuan Qing, what a coincidence, you two are back together again today! Are you here to borrow a lantern? Wait for me to get it for you. This one is a little dim and doesn't shine very brightly."

As she spoke, she turned around and went inside.

Song Ying breathed a sigh of relief and reminded Yuan Qing carefully, "It's dark and you can't see clearly. Walk slowly."

Yuan Qing squatted down, stroked Tangtang's head and back, and responded with a smile.

Soon, Luo Yanxing took out the lantern and gave it to Yuan Qing, then sent him away.

Song Ying thought she acted very naturally and without any flaws, but before going to bed, Luo Yanxing suddenly asked, "Are you worried about something today?"

"Ah?" Song Ying was stunned and said quickly, "No, why do you ask that?"

Luo Yanxing rolled his eyes. "We have been crawling together since we were still young. How can you hide it from me after all these years of getting along? You are still not worried. You were absent-minded all night and didn't pay attention to what we said. And,"

She raised her hand and pointed at the book in Song Ying's hand. "You have been reading this page for at least a quarter of an hour."

Song Ying lowered his eyes and quickly turned a page of the book. However, he found that he had no memory of the content of that page, so he quickly turned it back to read again.

Luo Yanxing took in her actions and became even more curious, "What happened?"

"Well..." Song Ying hesitated for a moment and decided to tell her.

"Yuan Qing said that after he passed the imperial examination, he would convince his family to get engaged to me."

"Hmm~" Luo Yanxing was so shocked that his voice unconsciously rose, and the tail tone swirled, and at the same time his eyes widened, "What? Yuan Qing wants to get engaged to you? He likes you!"

"Keep your voice down, Second Aunt will hear it soon!" Song Ying looked at the floor anxiously, his ears perked up, and only felt relieved after making sure that there was no movement below.

Luo Yanxing threw back the quilt and jumped off the bed. He walked over and sat next to Song Ying, and said excitedly, "Tell me everything from the beginning! I told you that Yuan Qing treats you differently, but you still don't admit it!"

Song Ying was so embarrassed that she said, "There's nothing much to say. It's just a general idea."

"No, no, I want to hear the whole process. When did he tell you that and where did he say it? Don't miss a single word you said." Luo Yanxing felt very sorry that she was not able to watch from the side at that time.

"Just now, when we reached the entrance of the alley and it was time to say goodbye..."

Song Ying couldn't persuade her, so she suppressed her shyness and told her what had just happened. Luo Yanxing's mouth was almost grinning to her ears, "I didn't realize this boy is so good at sweet talk!"

After talking about it, Song Ying was no longer so shy. She asked, "Do you think this marriage is good?"

"Of course!" Luo Yanxing said without hesitation, but then he was a little confused, "Haven't you already agreed? Don't you understand whether this marriage is good or not?"

Song Ying pursed her lips and said, "I agree, but I'm still a little worried."

"What are you worried about? Didn't he say he would take care of his family? Yuan Qing is a man whose words can be trusted. He is not one of those playboys who only know how to coax people with sweet words."
